Found faces Japanese star in Prince Of Wales Found's busy first half of the season continues when she goes to post for the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot. Last year's Breeders' Cup Turf heroine has had to make do with the runner-up spot on her last two starts in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh and the Coronation Cup at Epsom. Her trainer Aidan O'Brien has saddled two previous winners of the 10-furlong Group One in Duke Of Marmalade (2008) and So You Think (2012). Jockey Ryan Moore said: "She ran well enough in the Coronation Cup at Epsom as they just cantered round for the first six furlongs which made it hard work." A Shin Hikari bids to become the first ever Japanese-trained Royal Ascot winner in Wednesday's showpiece. A son of Deep Impact, the five-year-old has racked up a string of wins in his homeland, but it was his tremendous all-the-way victory in last December's Hong Kong Cup that really propelled him to a wider audience. Masanori Sakaguchi's grey made a devastating start to his European stint when landing a 10-length victory in the Prix d'Ispahan at Chantilly last month and is odds-on across the board to follow up in the feature event on day two of the showpiece meeting in Berkshire. The Grey Gatsby was beaten just a short head by Free Eagle in last year's renewal and is due to make his belated seasonal reappearance, having missed the Tattersalls Gold Cup on account of the rain-softened ground. Trainer Kevin Ryan admits conditions will not be ideal and he will make a decision on his participation on raceday. He said: "He's still in the race, so we'll see how the ground is riding and make a decision. "I'm not optimistic the ground is going to suit him. Like a lot of horses running here this week, he'd prefer better ground. "We could wait for the Eclipse, but he's been ready to run for a while. I'll have to discuss with Frank (Gillespie, owner) whether we take a chance and get a run into him. "If you keep getting these horses ready for races and then don't run, they get very fresh, so we'll see."
